...on Chimaera. This one bloke aims to ruin the business for all other architects, by selling BER13harvs for 75k each. He has 1000+ harvies up and running, and have no problem doing this. He says in a conversation with another merchant, and I quote, "I don't give a rats a** about the other architects".

We are few on Chimaera, and we struggle to keep it going, as the undermining has ruined us. I find it sad to see people aiming to ruin the game for the few that is left. I'm getting sick and tired of the lack of respect we architects get in this game, both from devs and other players. I was called a bloody ripoff by a player when I sold my BER13s for 125k, and my brother, when he was architect was flamed by a player who said 1 mill was way too much for a city, with CH, GH, 20 med houses, cantina, hospital etc etc.

If any architects from Chimaera reads this, please note down the name Serdatti or E*V*I*L. That is the man who aims to ruin everything for you on the server. Name, shame and get him banned from every mall you know. Serdatti is a jedi/BH. A 10 mill player bounty is out on him. I suggest you get your guilds BH to hunt him, regardless of faction. He says he want to be the richest player on the server. Lets do our part to stop that.

Just needed to get this off my chest. Sorry all...

Hard to buy him out I would guess. Just advertise your business as best you can and you should still do well even if your neighbor sells for less. Try to specialize in something else as well and that should get some sales.

Is this guy new? Undercutters tend to come and go, he might wander off in a few weeks. Even if he does't you can still sell for more when theres cheaper people around. I've been doing so quite well for quite a while. We've had 70-80k pricing from various people on my server for a while. I sell at 100k now and my sales are fine.

Whats the cost of ore on your server? If 2cpu or less like most servers I know then you can still make 100% profit at 100k or 50% profit at 75k. Thats really not the end of the world profit wise.

You said he has 1000+ harvesters up. Do you mean he's running 1000 of his own harvesters?? Thats way too much for anyone to maintain and he'll burn out quick. Or do you mean he's got 1000 harvesters in stock on his vendor? If they don't move he' might get bored and stop or liquidate at some point. In a month his firs test will come when he gets 900 auction unsuccessful mails. Or if he's in it for the long haul then you'll have to learn to deal with it. Thats capitalism.

1000 medium harvs has a daily maintenance of 3M.Thats pretty heavy sales just to maintain the harvesters. If he's got a good business going or a big bankroll then he can last a while fine, but if not and if his business sin't booming then it could crumble easily.

... could also be a lying braggard. 1000 harvs means lot trades with 100 people. Thats quite a LOT.

ANyone watch his vendors to see how much he adds on a daily basis?
